Notice where the little hybrid is! lol! She practically lives on Hota's back, and he obviously doesn't mind! Nick and Austin: here is a visual for you! YES, that is the 7 month old baby boy laying flat out on the basking spot, and yes, he is almost as big if not as big as the 3 year old male! He is gonna be a monster!!

Hi Donna,
Nice pic. The younger male should become a monster like dad. A lot of his kids seem to grow very quickly in the first couple years. Who knows how long it will take him to get to dad's size. We caught the dad in 2005, and he was a big adult already. He adjusted to captivity quickly, never loosing any weight or anything. He even fathered 2 clutches the first year we had him. Since then he has just continued to grow, in lenght and bulk. Now he is just monsterous. He is probably at least 10 or 12 years old.
Take Care.
